$A=150in^2\\\\h=8in;\ a=23in;\ b=?\\\\A=\frac{a+b}{2}\cdot h\\\\\frac{23+b}{2}\cdot8=150\\\\(23+b)\cdot4=150\ \ \ \ /:4\\\\23+b=37.5\ \ \ \ /-23\\\\b=14.5\ (in)\leftarrow answer$

Find the probability of atleast three successes in six trials of a binomial experiment in which the probability of success is 50

yan [13]

The binomial cumulative probability with p=0.5 for 3+ successes is as follows:

$P(3+)=\sum_{k=3}^6 {{6}\choose{k}}p^k(1-p)^{6-k}$

for p=0.5 (50% success rate) it becomes:

$P(3+)=\sum_{k=3}^6 {{6}\choose{k}}0.5^6=\frac{21}{32}=0.65625$

the probability is 0.65625, or about 66%

Need help please :( What is the second term of (s+v)^5?

Citrus2011 [14]

First compute the coefficient like this:
$C_5^1=\frac{5!}{1!(5-1)!}=\frac{5!}{4!}=\frac{5\times4!}{4!}$
Simplifying the fraction over 4! we get:
$C_5^1=5$
and the variables are $s^4v$ . So answer $5s^4v$ .

The correct answer is C then.
